The restaurant is open seven days a week across two service windows: lunch runs from 11:30AM to 3PM and dinner from 5PM to 10PM. The Vanit Village Aree complex sits on Phahonyothin Road in the Ari neighbourhood, which is accessible from BTS Ari station. The name references Apgujeong, an upscale district in Seoul known for its high-quality Korean BBQ restaurants. The Bangkok location follows the same format with table-side charcoal grilling and staff who manage the cooking process at the grill. The minimum order for grill service is two portions, so the format works best for pairs and groups. The restaurant posts updates on Instagram at instagram.com/apgujeonggrill_bkk.\n\nThe menu centres on grilled meats prepared at the table over charcoal. Core options include samgyupsal thick-cut pork belly alongside gabri marinated sweet pork and a blade-end beef cut seasoned in garlic and herbs. Korean staff manage the grilling at the table, which maintains quality control over cook time and doneness. The restaurant also serves bibimbap and corn cheese as part of the wider menu. Pricing runs at approximately 1,500 Thai Baht for two diners without alcohol.\n\nApgujeong Grill holds 4.9 stars from 787 reviews, which places it among the highest-rated Korean restaurants in Bangkok. The consistent score across a large review count suggests repeat visitors rather than a concentration of early promotional reviews. The restaurant is listed on OpenRice and Lemon8 with additional verified review coverage. Free parking is available in the Vanit Village Aree complex for diners arriving by car.","our_take":"Apgujeong Grill earns its 4.9-star rating through execution on the fundamentals. Quality cuts arrive with Korean staff managing the charcoal grill at the table, which keeps the cook quality consistent across a sitting. The Ari location draws a reliable crowd of Korean expats and Bangkok regulars. The price point is higher than most Korean restaurants in the city, but the ingredient quality supports it. The two-portion minimum means this works best as a group venue.","custom_description":null,"hook":"Apgujeong Grill Korean BBQ is located at Unit B01 in the Vanit Village Aree complex on Phahonyothin Road in Phaya Thai.
